Chinese New Version (Simplified)
耶和华的荣光充满了殿
7 所罗门祷告完了，有火从天上降下来，烧尽了燔祭和其他的祭品；耶和华的荣光充满了那殿。 2 因为耶和华的荣光充满了耶和华的殿，祭司都不能进入耶和华的殿。 3 那火降下，耶和华的荣光停在殿上的时候，以色列众人都看见；于是他们在铺石地跪下，俯伏在地，敬拜称颂耶和华说：“耶和华是良善的，他的慈爱永远长存。”
所罗门和人民一起献祭守节(A)
4 王和全体人民都在耶和华面前献祭。 5 所罗门王献上了二万二千头牛、十二万只羊为祭。这样，王和全体人民为 神的殿举行了奉献礼。 6 祭司都站在自己的岗位上；利未人也站着，拿着大卫王所做的耶和华的乐器，称颂耶和华，因为他的慈爱永远长存；大卫借着他们赞美耶和华的时候，祭司在众人前面吹号；以色列众人都站着。 7 所罗门把耶和华殿前院子当中的地方分别为圣，在那里献上了燔祭和平安祭的脂肪，因为所罗门所做的铜坛容不下所有的燔祭、素祭和脂肪。
8 那时，所罗门和全体以色列人，就是来自哈马口，直到埃及小河的一群极大的会众，一起举行了七天的节期。 9 第八天举行了严肃会，又举行献坛礼七天，举行了七天的节期。 10 七月二十三日，王遣散众民回家；他们因看见耶和华向大卫、所罗门和他的子民以色列所施的恩惠，心里都欢喜快乐。
耶和华的警告与应许(B)
11 这样，所罗门完成了耶和华的殿宇和王宫。在耶和华的殿里或所罗门的宫中，所罗门心里要作的，都顺利地作成了。 12 夜间，耶和华向所罗门显现，对他说：“我已经听了你的祷告，也为我自己选择了这地方作献祭的殿。 13 如果我使天闭塞不下雨，或吩咐蝗虫吞吃这地的土产，或差遣瘟疫到我的子民中间来； 14 这称为我名下的子民，若是谦卑、祷告、寻求我的面，转离他们的恶行，我必从天上垂听，赦免他们的罪，医治他们的地。 15 现在我的眼睛必张开，我的耳朵必垂听在这地所发的祷告。 16 现在我拣选了这殿，把它分别为圣，使我的名永远在这殿中；我的眼和我的心也常常留在那里。 17 至于你，你若是在我面前行事为人像你的父亲大卫所行的那样，遵行我吩咐你的一切话，谨守我的律例和典章， 18 我就必巩固你的国位，好象我和你父亲大卫所立的约说：‘你的子孙必不会断人作君王统治以色列。’
19 “可是，如果你们转离我，丢弃我在你们面前颁布的律例和诫命，去事奉和敬拜别的神， 20 我就必把以色列人从我赐给他们的土地上拔出来，并且我为自己的名分别为圣的这殿，我也必从我面前舍弃，使这殿在万民中成为笑谈和讥笑的对象。 21 这殿虽然高大，但将来经过的人，都必惊讶，说：‘耶和华为甚么这样对待这地和这殿呢？’ 22 人必回答说：‘是因为这地的人离弃了耶和华他们列祖的 神，就是领他们从埃及地出来的 神，去亲近别的神，敬拜和事奉他们；所以，耶和华使这一切灾祸临到他们。’”

圣殿奉献礼
7 所罗门祷告完毕，就有火从天上降下，烧尽了燔祭和其他祭物。殿里充满了耶和华的荣光， 2 以致祭司不能进殿。 3 全体以色列人看见有火降下，又看见耶和华的荣光停在殿上，便俯伏敬拜，称谢耶和华说：
“耶和华是美善的，
祂的慈爱永远长存。”
4 所罗门王和全体民众一同向耶和华献祭。 5 所罗门王献上两万二千头牛和十二万只羊，王和全体民众为上帝的殿举行奉献典礼。 6 祭司在自己的岗位上侍立，利未人奏着大卫王为颂赞耶和华而为他们制造的乐器，歌颂说：“祂的慈爱永远长存。”他们对面的祭司也吹响号角，全体以色列人都肃立。
7 所罗门因所造的铜坛太小，容不下燔祭、素祭和脂肪，就把耶和华殿前院子中间的地方分别出来，作圣洁之地，在那里献上燔祭和平安祭祭牲的脂肪。
8 所罗门和从哈马口直至埃及小河而来的全体以色列人聚成一大群会众，一起守节期七天。 9 第八天举行庄严的聚会，又举行七天献坛礼。之后，他们又欢庆七天。 10 七月二十三日，所罗门王让民众各回本乡。他们看见耶和华向大卫、所罗门和祂的以色列子民所施的恩惠，就满心欢喜地回家去了。
耶和华向所罗门显现
11 所罗门建完了耶和华的殿和他自己的王宫，他按计划完成了耶和华殿里和他自己宫里的一切工作。 12 耶和华在夜间向所罗门显现，对他说：“我已听见你的祷告，也已选择这殿作为给我献祭的地方。 13 若我使天不下雨，使蝗虫吞吃地上的出产，或叫瘟疫在我民中流行， 14 而这些被称为我名下的子民若谦卑下来，祈祷、寻求我的面，离开恶道，我必从天上垂听，赦免他们的罪，医治他们的土地。 15 现在，我会睁眼看、留心听在这殿里献上的祷告。 16 我已选择这殿，使之圣洁，永远归在我的名下，我的眼和我的心必常在那里。 17 如果你像你父亲大卫一样事奉我，遵行我一切的吩咐，谨守我的律例和典章， 18 我必使你的王位稳固，正如我曾与你父亲大卫立约，说，‘你的子孙必永远统治以色列。’
19 “然而，如果你们背弃我指示你们的律例和诫命，去供奉、祭拜别的神明， 20 我必把你们从我赐给你们的土地上铲除，并离弃我为自己的名而使之圣洁的这殿，使这殿在万民中成为笑柄、被人嘲讽。 21 这殿虽然宏伟，但将来经过的人必惊讶地问，‘耶和华为什么这样对待这地方和这殿呢？’ 22 人们会回答，‘因为他们背弃曾领他们祖先离开埃及的耶和华——他们的上帝，去追随、祭拜、供奉别的神明，所以耶和华把这一切灾祸降在他们身上。’”
2 Chronicles 7
New Living Translation
The Dedication of the Temple
7 When Solomon finished praying, fire flashed down from heaven and burned up the burnt offerings and sacrifices, and the glorious presence of the Lord filled the Temple. 2 The priests could not enter the Temple of the Lord because the glorious presence of the Lord filled it. 3 When all the people of Israel saw the fire coming down and the glorious presence of the Lord filling the Temple, they fell face down on the ground and worshiped and praised the Lord, saying,
“He is good!
His faithful love endures forever!”
4 Then the king and all the people offered sacrifices to the Lord. 5 King Solomon offered a sacrifice of 22,000 cattle and 120,000 sheep and goats. And so the king and all the people dedicated the Temple of God. 6 The priests took their assigned positions, and so did the Levites who were singing, “His faithful love endures forever!” They accompanied the singing with music from the instruments King David had made for praising the Lord. Across from the Levites, the priests blew the trumpets, while all Israel stood.
7 Solomon then consecrated the central area of the courtyard in front of the Lord’s Temple. He offered burnt offerings and the fat of peace offerings there, because the bronze altar he had built could not hold all the burnt offerings, grain offerings, and sacrificial fat.
8 For the next seven days Solomon and all Israel celebrated the Festival of Shelters.[a] A large congregation had gathered from as far away as Lebo-hamath in the north and the Brook of Egypt in the south. 9 On the eighth day they had a closing ceremony, for they had celebrated the dedication of the altar for seven days and the Festival of Shelters for seven days. 10 Then at the end of the celebration,[b] Solomon sent the people home. They were all joyful and glad because the Lord had been so good to David and to Solomon and to his people Israel.
The Lord’s Response to Solomon
11 So Solomon finished the Temple of the Lord, as well as the royal palace. He completed everything he had planned to do in the construction of the Temple and the palace. 12 Then one night the Lord appeared to Solomon and said,
“I have heard your prayer and have chosen this Temple as the place for making sacrifices. 13 At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you. 14 Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. 15 My eyes will be open and my ears attentive to every prayer made in this place. 16 For I have chosen this Temple and set it apart to be holy—a place where my name will be honored forever. I will always watch over it, for it is dear to my heart.
17 “As for you, if you faithfully follow me as David your father did, obeying all my commands, decrees, and regulations, 18 then I will establish the throne of your dynasty. For I made this covenant with your father, David, when I said, ‘One of your descendants will always rule over Israel.’
19 “But if you or your descendants abandon me and disobey the decrees and commands I have given you, and if you serve and worship other gods, 20 then I will uproot the people from this land that I have given them. I will reject this Temple that I have made holy to honor my name. I will make it an object of mockery and ridicule among the nations. 21 And though this Temple is impressive now, all who pass by will be appalled. They will ask, ‘Why did the Lord do such terrible things to this land and to this Temple?’
22 “And the answer will be, ‘Because his people abandoned the Lord, the God of their ancestors, who brought them out of Egypt, and they worshiped other gods instead and bowed down to them. That is why he has brought all these disasters on them.’”
